The Original Poetry Of Amy Beth Schenkemeyer

SUICIDAL DREAMS Feeling low All my life, gone too slow Stuck in a rut Working for something, but what? Sensing a frown, Now I know I'm down Waiting for a message to send I want my life to end About to take my final flight Where I'll meet my plight Still inside my mother's womb I could sense my tomb Mortal life over, Immortal life begun Write the note and pick up the gun Finger on the trigger, pull back Ain't gonna cut myself any slack Goodbye, everyone, all is done I guess I wasn't the chosen one FALLING IN LOVE Falling in love so deep Your heart I want to keep You brighten my days With your sweet, loving ways I long to tell you this I melt inside your kiss Our hearts and minds are one My searching for Mr. Right is done If only you could see How much I enjoy your holding me You've won my heart I hope we never part This feeling is so true I'm falling in love with you LOVE Love is simple, love is kind It pays no mind To your dark past Love will last Pure and true Love is me and you Across the land Hand in hand Rythym and rhyme All throughout time No impatience or lust To you my soul I trust Sent down from above I've finally found true love FORBIDDEN LOVE Why can't they forget my past? Why can't they see our love will last I know this rain Will bring a season of pain Our hearts and minds are one What is right will be done All of their madness Is bringing us sadness Our hearts they want to break It's giving us heartache Sent down from above, For you, for me, for us Forbidden love DYING A part of me is dying inside Because I'm leaving you I physically won't be here every day To listen to your problems and fears A part of me is afraid of the future Where will we go Will it still be "us" or just "you" and "me" A part of me is dying inside I'm leaving the one I love so dearly "Goodbyes" are forever So what do I say To you, when I go except "I love you"? CHANGES Sitting in the corner of my pitch-black room Razor blade in hand Memories of my world Crashing down on me again and again My heart shattered into a thousand pieces I'm giving up on me I want everything to end No one loves me I guess it's time to go That was all a few years ago Now, a wonderful change has entered my life Someone who loves me and acepts me for who I am Someone who listens and cares This newfound love is rare and special I never want it to end But my mind keeps wondering When changes will occur again FALLING APART In your eyes On your face I can see what happens now The words you'll speak The tears I'll cry Over our once perfect love Which has now fallen apart In our past The tender moments we shared They seemd so right What has happened to us Where have we gone wrong? I hear you love someone else now I only wish happiness upon you When you hold her close, in your arms I only wish it were me that you loved And that I was in your arms, safe and content What happened to us? When did we fall out of love How do we get ourselves back where we belong? Something keeps our two broken hearts together Lets find it together And get back where we belong THANK YOU You were always here for me when I needed a friend When I needed a shoulder to cry on When I needed a hand to hold And someone to count on I can still remember that day When I told you I wanted to Slit my wrists and die You were the only one who cared Enough to help me You were the one who talked me out of it If you hadn't been there I'd be dead After all the times that I jerked you around You always came back to me And always forgave me I don't know why, because I didn't deserve it Why are you so good to me when I've hurt you so much in the past I just wanted to than you For loving me You are my best friend and one of The greatest loves in my life I want to have you in my life now and forever Thank you for being a part of my life And I will always be here for you FEAR Drowning in my tears Crying alone in the dark Fearing all of my fears Shuddering at the sound of a dog's bark Abandonment, lonliness, and failure Are all things of which I have a great fear Hopelessness, sadness, depression Leave me yearning for someone To hold me near And hear my cries of fear HEAVENLY LOVE Looking at the stars so bright Wishing for dreams, maybe tonight Searching for love Kind, gentle, and peaceful sent from above Gazing at the clouds and the moon Praying and hoping that soon That someone will care for me Then oh how happy I'll be!! DEAL WITH IT (OR CHANGE YOUR WORLD) So you don't like the government? Deal with it Or you can change your world Go out and vote Nominate another candidate Or shut your mouth And quit complaining Because you're too fake to do anything about it. So you don't like what's on television? Deal with it Or you can change your world Change the channel Turn off the TV and write some poetry Eat, sleep, work, excercise, volunteer Or think about the world Be creative Create your own entertainment Or shut your mouth And quit complaining You're too self-absorbed and lazy to do anything So you don't like your job? Deal with it Or you can change your world Pick up the newspaper Apply for another job Quit Or shut your mouth and quit complaining Your're too immature and malcontent So you don't like your life? Deal with it Or you can change your world Change your style Change your hair Change your friends Change your underwear Change your attitude Or shut your mouth And quit complaining You're just starving for attention Face it, the world doesn't revolve around you Deal with it Or you can change your world THERE (IN A MINUTE) If you ever need me I'll be there in a minute I will be there, totally, completely, and fully For you, my friend For throughout my life I have learned That everyone should have someone Who honestly cares about them And realizes that every single life is valuable And that feelings are very real And they get hurt, confused, and depressed But people in this world don't always care About your needs and wants and fears Or about the wonderful person inside of you Because they only want to see the exterior No matter what is there So always remember Whenever you need someone Whenever you want someone Wo really and truly and fully Cares about you for the person inside I'll be there in a minute For you, my friend LOOKIHNG INTO THE MIRROR (SEEING MYSELF) Looking into the mirror I see a young woman With short, curly brown hair, green eyes And freckles An ordinary, everyday type of person But when I take a closer look at myself Into the depths of my soul I see a frightened little girl Insecure about herself Emotionally scarred Traumatized for life Every morning I apply makeup to my face To cover up the little imperfections To improve my appearance I wear makeup on the inside too To hide the pain I've felt all my life I put on a happy front Or an I-don't-care attitude And go on with daily life Looking into the mirror Looking at myself Wishing and hoping that I am beautiful Inside and out RAIN AND TEARS Rain, rain, falling down Like my tears, pouring out Puddles are forming, down around My heart, where my feelings are floating about My thoughts are soaring up among the clouds My heart is heavy, falling to the ground All these emotions are stirring up cyclones Throughout my body I cannot withold my pain any longer Where can I go and who can I tell? I have only myself To deal with the misery inside My tears and the rain, both falling down But maybe soon, The sun will come out and a rainbow will appear Turning my tears into a smile VOICES IN MY HEAD Dark clods on a cold starry night Frigid pools of water, derowning away all frights The thoughs going on in my throbbing brain Always frowning Upon the tragic events of my past The endless mstakes that will last Forever planted in my twisted head God, I wish I were fucking dead Deader than the rotting, maggot-infested corpses in the ground A few minutes finally pass, I look around The voices in my head are no more Yet I hear a thumping on my door I open it up and no one is there The voices are around me now, everywhere Lauging at me inside my head I pick up the gun and shoot me dead The voices in my head are nothing but silent The end of a life, so sudden, so violent MY SWEET ANGEL My sweet angel, you've made my life bright My sweet angel, I love to see you smile My sweet angel, you are my light My sweet angel, I want to hold you tight My sweet angel, tell me your fears My sweet angel, you are safe with me near My sweet angel, don't you cry My sweet angel, we will never say goodbye My sweet angel, hold my hand My sweet angel, I will help you stand My sweet angel, with wings so new My sweet angel, I love you A POEM FOR MY EVERLASTING LOVE Every time I look into your eyes each day Pieces of my painful past fade away And every time you hold me tight In your arms, late at night The safeness and security you bring me Calms my fright The love that you show me In every hug and every kiss Is just one more thing about you That I never want to miss The love in your eyes, your adorable smile Makes all of our hardships worth the while The intoxicating aroma Of your freshly sprayed cologne Keeps me yearning for all of the tender moments When I have you alone When I'm not with you, The lonlieness cuts like a knife Because you are the one With whom I want to spend the rest of my life! WOULD YOU KNOW ME NOW? Would you know me now If you would happen to see my face? Would you still treat me as your friend? Or hold me in your embrace? Would you answer me now? If I would call your name? Would you look me in the eye And tell me things are still the same? Would you need me now The way you did before? Could you love me now When I've never needed you more? Do you miss me now? Am I still your friend? Please don't leave me now Stay with me until the end LAST NIGHT I closed my eyes last night And all I saw was you I felt your embrace I smelled your sweet scent I heard your voice And your kisses carressed my face I felt your pain in my heart Your unspoken words rang in my ears Your fears ran through my blood Your worries echoed my brain I lay there falling asleep A smile formed on my lips And curled up under my blankets I dreamed fo what tomorrow would bring
